German militaria

A late war hooded Waffen-SS Wachmantel in good used condition. Nicely marked 2392/43 and named to Bechler. A lot of these mantels can be seen in pictures of the Ardennes offensive worn by members of Kampfgruppe Hansen and in and around La Gleize. These mantels where specifically made for the Waffen-SS and lack the french cuffs the Heer types have. The mantel shows a lot of wear and age and would make a great addition to a late war Waffen-SS combat mannequin!

Textbook near mint tropical A-frame maker marked and dated R. Larsen Berlin 1941. The A-frame is unique in a sense that it’s finished with leather loops which is the first one I’ve seen.

Excellent unissued A-frame or A-rahmen complete with intact leather straps that never have been removed or repaired. This A-frame is most likely made in the Ghetto of Lodz, Poland which the Germans renamed into “Litzmannstadt”. They are made using parts of captured British equipment items. These British equipment items where left in 1940 when the (BEF) British Expeditionary Force evacuated to the United Kingdom. The Germans sent this British equipment to Litzmannstadt for recycling and a lot of work was put in disassembling every British equipment piece and recycling the individual parts into German army equipment. Y-straps, breadbags, A-frames and rucksacks are a few of the items made in Litzmannstadt. This A-frame is a beautiful example of the equipment that was most likely made in Litzmannstadt. The A-frame is in stone mint condition and shows a lot of interesting British features and details into the construction. This is one of the best Litzmannstadt made A-frame I have ever seen and had the pleasure to offer and is impossible to upgrade!

Beautiful untouched Luftwaffe visor with beautiful embroided insignia. The visor is in good, worn condition and retains its original insignia. A stunning example with loads of character that would be hard to upgrade.

Textbook M37 lowboots as worn by the Heer, Luftwaffe and Waffen-SS. These lowboots are a typical and matching pair in light worn condition. The boots are a nice medium size fitting most modern mannequins and come with their original metal tipped laces. The rear seams of the boots have some stitching undone; otherwise a great and undamaged pair! For me this is the perfect pair for a mannequin, used not abused!

A well worn tunic for a Oberleutnant in Infanteriegeriment 64. A custom tailored tunic with handsewn details. The insignia are handsewn to the tunic and show the same aging as the tunic itself. Stitching of the bottom of the swastika is a bit loose but firm, but no serious damages to be noted. The tunic is a snug medium fit that would be a nice base to display awards.

A nice original tan and water or Sumpftarn Wendejacke in near mint condition. The parka retains all its buttons, straps and cords. It is nicely marked 0/1001/0068 and a large 2 for the size. The parka is in near mint condition and retains its nice bright camouflage colours and one or two misprints. The parka has one or two small (imo wartime) repairs. A very nice late war combat parka!

A nice unissued pair of Luftwaffe M40 trousers. The trousers are a nice mannequin size and still retain most if not all of the nap on the wool. There are a few minimal moth nips on the bottom which is normal for these garments after being stored for so long. A great pair in unissued condition that would look great on a mannequin!

Stunning Luftwaffe tropical camouflage gasmask. Nice and typical Luftwaffe camouflage canister with one blue grey overpaint and one in light tropical tan paint. The canister still retains up to 75% of its original wartime camouflage paint and comes complete with its original straps, mask and filter. A great piece for a southern front or Afrika display!

Nice original Spreewerk made P38 deactivated to the new EU specifications with proofmarks and certificate. The P38 can be cocked and has a moving trigger and hammer but does not dry fire. The magazine is detachable and nicely marked P38. The grips are whole and are made of a nice deep red bakelite. Very nice display piece!

Scarce late war factory produced Waffen-SS issue fur cap. Modeled after the Ushanka, this thin artificial fur hat was most probably meant to be worn underneath the helmet. The hat cap is internally rayon lined and size marked 55. I’ve seen a few of these caps in dot pattern but this is the first one in oak leaf camouflage. Very nice and scarce late war Waffen-SS camouflage cap!

Superb lightly worn late war non-reversible hard-edged ’43 pattern Sumpftarn parka. The parka is in good condition with a nice strong colours. The jacket has one small hole in the back but is otherwise undamaged. The garment has very nice and strong colours and is nicely size 2 marked which is a perfect mannequin size.

A nice original Splittertarn Wendejacke in good used condition named Gefreiter Bernard with Feldpostnummer 42784. The parka is in very good condition and retains its nice bright camouflage colours. The parka has damages and repairs. The camouflage used for the construction of this garment is the so called Splittertarn. A very nice late war combat parka!

42784

Textbook Reversible Sumpftarn parka trousers in good worn condition. Nicely RBNR marked inside and with nice strong colours!

A very nice late war multi coloured German helmet net. The net is in mint unissued condition. A very nice attribute to any late war Heer or Luftwaffe helmet!

Superb single decal Luftwaffe M40 helmet in very good condition marked Q62 indicating production by Quist. The helmet retains up to 95% of its original finish and decal. The decal is a typical Luftwaffe example with a faulty applied lightly toned decal that is often seen with these helmets. The helmet retains its factory placed liner. Textbook Luftwaffe helmet in very good condition!

Textbook CKL66 M42 no decal helmet in good condition. Marked CKL66 indicating production by Eissenhuttenwerke Thale. The helmet comes with its original factory mounted size 58 liner and 1944 dated chinstrap.

Late war Heer Veterinär visor marked Erstklassig CW (Carl Wagner). The visor is a excellent and unworn example. Beautiful textbook example manufactured in Trikot. The cap is a nice medium size that would be impossible to upgrade!
